Hmmm... This forum has been around since 2005ish, so there's 6 years. And there was at least a year on Yahoo Groups.
Was it really that long ago? Wow, doesn't time fly when your having fun?
Actually, mothballing was part of the original Aurora, back seven or eight years ago. It was removed when the game shifted to the current system using Maintenance Facilities.Was it really that long ago? Wow, doesn't time fly when your having fun?
eheh welcome Commander.
"mothballing" are an "aging request features"..probable a very old..2008..2007..
Steve's never follow our request:)
The good part is that those crews could continue to gain skill giving you some elderly designs that have really high crew grade modifiers. Personally I love those sorts of ships as they can become excellent beam point defense ships. The high crew grade has a major impact on the overall chance to shoot down fast missiles, and the shorter range/lighter beam weapons are not usually a big deal in final point defense mode.

You could get around that by creating a PDC with huge hangar capacity - No maintenance for the PDC, no maintenance for stored shipsThe good part is that those crews could continue to gain skill giving you some elderly designs that have really high crew grade modifiers.

Bad part is you still need to crew the "mothballed" ships.
